As a part of my schooling at Millersville University I took courses that covered international music (International Music taught by Dr. Daniel Heslink), western music(Introduction to Art Music taught by Dr. Philip Tacka), and american music (Pop Music taught by Dr. N. Kieth Wiley).

Listed below is a research project I completed for International Art Music on Johannes Brahms and it is followed by a paper and ear map I constructed for International Music on the topic of West African Kora Music of the Mali.
